##About
PapraGame is a game featuring ducks ! It is both free as in beer and open souce.

It's a multiplayer versus snake-like (but it may be played in solo aswell). To win, you have to be the first to reach a certain number of duckies, depending on the map (you start with 2). You can get duckies either by catching an egg, or by stealing one to your opponent(s) (you can steal him/her a ducky by forcing him/her to punch you in the duckies).

Several biomes are available (changes the graphics), and maps can be easily modified.

You may change your keys settings within the keys.conf file

/!\ Under developement. Latest version : v1.0 -- Temerarium Anatum

###Gameplay
You can choose the keys for each player in the res/keys.conf file. Default keys are the arrows for player 1

Pause by pressing Escape (the game also pauses if it looses the focus). When you hit an obstacle, you will be unvulnerable for 5 turns. Strange violet stuff that may appears in a map are warps. Going into a warp will teleport you to another random warp. Beware the walls !

###Maps
You can add a map in the folder ./maps/). Just create a file named <map_name>.map and edit it with text editor. The file should be structured according to the following (line by line)

• Biome (sand, grass, space, snow, magma, psychogwak)
• visible if all the map is revealed, blind otherwise
  • if it's a blind map, add the Line of Sight of ducks (duckies LOS is halved)
  • Then add loop if you want the LOS to 'loop' or no-loop otherwise. (ie : do you want a duck at the very top of the map to see what's at the very bottom of the map ?)
• The game 'slowness'
• Number of eggs required to win (0 for infinity)
• Length of the map
• Width of the map
• Map itself with characters :
  • o for the obstacle (rock, asteroid, cactus, …)
  • . for the blank tile (grass, void space, sand, …)
  • | for the 'river' that goes from north to south
  • - for the east-west one
  • 1 for east-south (from the num-keypad)
  • 3 for west-south
  • 7 for east-north
  • 9 for west-north
  • x for warps
• Starting direction of player 1 (up, down, left, right)
  • On the same line, starting point of player 1 (x then y) [the origin is on the top left. x increases rightwards, y increases downwards]
• Same for any other players
• eof (eof stands for End Of File)

##Compile

In order to compile PapraGame executable, go to the project's root with a terminal, and use the command

$ make (1 thread) or $ make fast (8 threads)

If you are using an SFML version below 2.3, use instead

$ make DEFINES=-DOLD_SFML_COMPAT or $ make DEFINES=-DOLD_SFML_COMPAT fast

(nb: The game won't pause upon losing focus when using OLD_SFML_COMPAT)

Note that you might need to configure the Makefile if you don't you g++, for instance

An executable named PapraGame.elf should be generated in the build/ folder

To uninstall the game, simply use # make uninstall

##Contribute

You may contribute easily by trying the game and having fun ! That would make us very happy !

##Thanks

We would like to thanks the SFML dev team for their work, they're awesome ; And Gimp for graphics.
